I selected the Business 4000 Plan. However, I wanted more than one IP, so that I could setup my own DNS Servers. However, being a Govt. organization BSNL could not even consider it.
I would like to mention here that I have had DSL connection from HFCL Connect, a private sector company in Punjab, which provided Static IPs on an extra charge of Rs 2500 per IP/year. Exorbitant as it was, additional static IPs could be had. And the service provider garnered additional revenue on the same resources.
